Comment (by ArthurWalden):

 Um...the first things you are probably confused about (and I admit I
 didn't say) is that I'm playing the EGA version, not AGDI's VGA one. In
 most cases in QfG2 EGA, you don't say hello and goodbye to the characters
 you meet per se. In the case of Keapon Laffin, he greets you when you
 enter his shop with one set of dialogue (usually generic but sometimes
 using a particular set of dialogue based on an event in the game such as
 an elemental appearing the city) and then says goodbye with another set
 when you leave the shop.

 EGA version is text parser. You type in commands and will find movement
 easiest with the keypad. The mouse point-and-click was introduced in the
 VGA version. Sierra's version was the EGA one. The much later VGA one was
 a fan remake.

 The only way I think version could play a role here is if Sierra, when
 patching the game for the last time, introduced a bug so that Keapon
 doesn't say some of the lines he should.
